What I also want you to know

If you are curious about how I got here

LET ME SHARE MY STORY
 

I was born into a family of hard working entrepreneurs, and I spent my formative years steeped in the family business. As a young child, I was exposed to the wonders of travel and the beauty of diverse cultures. I loved how different parts of the world held different realities, each unique and fascinating in its own right.

Despite my love for adventure, my grandmother's home, in the small town called Comănești, was where I felt the most loved and accepted. It was a sanctuary from the chaos of the world outside.

Like many young people, I followed the path that was expected of me. I earned a degree in business administration and embarked on a career as a brand manager, consultant and teacher. I was driven to succeed, to prove myself to others, and most of all, to myself. But beneath my ambitious exterior, I struggled with deep feelings of inadequacy. I was doing my best to make everyone else happy, to feel broken, lost, and afraid (of everything).

But beneath my ambitious exterior, I struggled with deep feelings of inadequacy. I was doing my best to make everyone else happy, to feel broken, lost, and afraid (of everything). 

Everything changed six years ago, in 2017 when I met one of the greatest initiators of all, Death, as my beloved grandmother passed away in a tragic accident.

I was devastated, but even in her last moments in this world, she gave me some of the greatest gifts in this life.

She reminded me that life is short and unpredictable, and that we don’t have infinite time to live our dreams and make our time here meaningful.

She made me question everything - the meaning of death, of life, my purpose, what is beyond what we see and know, what makes me happy, what keeps me playing small, what do I value, and the most difficult question at the time, the one I pursued with much insistence, WHO AM I?

 Her passing sent me on a journey of self-discovery and healing that continues to this day. I was haunted by the question of who I truly was, and I realised that I had spent too many years chasing everyone else’s dreams but my own.

I decided to do things differently, to pursue my own path at all costs.

I decided to do things differently, to pursue my own path at all costs.

I began exploring various healing modalities, from therapy to meditation to energy work, searching for answers. I even traveled to Peru, where I had a profound experience with the Vine of the Death, Mother Ayahuasca. I was forever changed by this initiation, and she gave me the necessary loving push to be my true self, no matter what.

I also realised that it’s time to do something different for my physical health, and I decided to pursue alternative healing paths for my persistent and terrible chronic urinary tract infections.

I met an incredible doctor who addressed the root cause of my illness and prescribed a body-mind treatment rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda.

 

This was a turning point in my life, and I began to take my desires and my body seriously.

 

I continued to explore what kind of work I truly wanted to do and what my soul was yearning to share with others. After much self-inquiry and experimentation, I decided to pursue a second bachelor’s degree, this time in psychology, with the goal of becoming a healer myself.

Along the way, I also experienced a difficult breakup that forced me to confront my anxious attachment and learn how to hold and love myself better.

But in the midst of all this, I found a love I never thought existed - a man who honoured me for all that I am, who loved me into unfolding as myself like never before. And I learned how to be with him without loosing myself in the process and the value that brings to a committed relationship.

The moment I really knew I would dedicate my life to healing was when I began studying with my teacher Layla Martin. The VITA method was the deepest dive into myself, mind, body, and soul. It brought me home to my inner power and truth, and it gave me practical tools to support my own journey and others.

 

Through all of these experiences, I have come to deeply believe that being authentic and true to oneself can truly transform our lives and the lives of those around. My life has been more about celebrating aliveness, honouring what is true, moment to moment, leaning deeper into who I really am and committing myself to serving others from a space of fullness.

 

I approach life as a sacred ceremony, honouring each moment and making room for all life’s flavours to exist, flow and shape me, just like the flow of the river shapes the landscape. My relationship with my body has grown stronger, and I am learning to connect more deeply with the body of the earth.

As a result, my life has expanded to include more joy, more pleasure, and more aliveness.

KIND WORDS

 

Working with Mara has been truly life changing.

She listens so tenderly, making me feel safe to share my heaviest shame, my deepest sorrows, and my wildest dreams. Even on my worst days, she has guided me to finding a safe grounding in my body.

With Mara, my body has become a safe place to land, a warm sense of home that no one can take away from me.

This security in myself has given me greater courage to be bold in my career and relationships. I now know what my authentic 'Yes' and 'No' feels like in my body. I now speak up for myself and create healthy boundaries. I have experienced again and again the remarkable transformation of dysregulation (fear, anxiety, loneliness, etc.) into full body pleasure and rolling effervescent giggles. I used to "want" to believe in the universe, I now deeply believe in the divine and deeply trust in the unknown. I have quivered with pleasure meeting divine feminine and divine masculine within my body. I have expanded my sense of who I am and what it means to be human. This is no longer conceptual, but a concrete knowing from experiencing strength and wisdom arise in my body. I trust Mara with my whole, complete self. She guides with kindness and intelligence, creating luscious, safe, attuned, and nourishing sessions. I highly recommend working with Mara.

 

ANGELA SOLEY

KIND WORDS 

  

Working with Mara has been an amazing journey that helped me reconnect with my body and rediscover the goddess within me. 

With her love, warmth, and experience, she has guided me in this journey of identifying my emotions in my body and helped me learn how to be comfortable with them, how to sit with the emotions I'm feeling instead of running from them, and how to express them instead of blocking them in my body. Thanks to her, I was able to discover the source of many headaches I had. 

Also, I had spent many years of my life acting from my masculine energy and blocking my feminine energy, thinking that was the only way to achieve what I wanted, especially in my professional life. Mara helped me reconnect with my feminine energy, the goddess within me as I like to call it and find a balance. She helped me discover that I can achieve what I want by embracing the Wonder Woman who lives within me. 

Working with Mara has been an amazing experience, and I strongly recommend her to anyone who wants to reach a new stage in their relationship with themselves.

KIND WORDS

 

I learned how to ask for help from within during overwhelming moments

Mara's sessions helped me learn new things about myself and new practices I can utilize to handle difficult situations.

If you want to learn new ways to bring clarity over your beliefs regarding relationships, beliefs that may hold you down, or you want to learn new ways to uplift your spirit, you should give Mara's session a try!

MĂDĂLINA MOȚOC

KIND WORDS

 

 

Combining different techniques while working with Mara brought me closer to my true self, I have learned stillness and listening to what my body has to say.

Therefore I gained more clarity, more calmness and more confidence. It came just perfectly in developing my relationship with myself and with other people. I would definitely recommend 1-1 sessions with Mara to all women that I know, friends, and family.
